DIP switch

Correct technique

Incorrect technique

• When unpacking the NA Unit, check carefully for any external scratches or other damages. Also,
shake the NA Unit gently and check for any abnormal sound.

• The NA Unit must be installed in a control panel.

• To conform to UL Type 1 standards, the mounting panel thickness must be 1.6 to 6.0 mm.
To conform to UL Type 4X standards, the thickness must be 1.6 to 4.5 mm.
To conform to UL Type 4X standards, always use the NA5-W with a High-pressure
Waterproof Attachment (PWA). If you do not use a PWA, there is a risk of water entry, which may
cause severe equipment damage. Do not use the NA Unit outdoors. Tighten the Mounting Brackets
evenly to a torque of between 0.5 and 0.6 N·m to maintain water and dust resistance. If the tightening
torque exceeds the specified value, or the tightening is not even, deformation of the front panel may
occur. What is more, make sure the panel is not dirty or warped, that the front surface is smooth, and
that the panel is strong enough to hold the NA Unit.

• Do not let metal particles enter the NA Unit when preparing the panel.

• Turn OFF the power supply before connecting or disconnecting cables.

• Periodically check the installation conditions in applications where the NA Unit is subject to contact
with oil or water.

• Be certain to use the cables with lock mechanism such as serial cable or the Ethernet cable after
confirming if it is securely locked.

• Do not touch the packaging part of the circuit board with your bare hands. Discharge any static elec­tricity from your body before handling the board.

• Do not use volatile solvents such as benzene and thinners or chemical cloths.

• Water and oil resistance will be lost if the front sheet is torn or is peeling off. Do not use the NA Unit,
if the front sheet is torn or is peeling off.

• As the rubber packing will deteriorate, shrink, or harden depending on the operating environment,
periodical inspection is necessary.

• Confirm the safety of the system before turning ON or OFF the power supply, or pressing the reset
switch.

• The whole system may stop depending on how the power supply is turned ON or OFF. Turn ON/OFF
the power supply according to the specified procedure.

• Operate DIP switch according to the following way.

Precautions for Safe Use

NA-series Programmable Terminal Hardware User’s Manual (V117)

The DIP switch may break if it is levered with a tool against the case as shown in the figure.

• Once the DIP switch settings are changed, reset by pressing the reset switch, or restart the power
supply.

• Initialize the project, after confirming that existing project is backed up at the Sysmac Studio.

• When changing the password, do not reset or turn OFF the power supply until the writing is com­pleted. A failure to store the password may cause the project to fail to function.

• While uploading or downloading a project or a system program, do not perform the operations as fol­lows. Such operations may corrupt the project or the system program:

• Turning OFF the power supply of the NA Unit.

• Resetting the NA Unit.

• Removing the USB devices or SD card.

15

Precautions for Safe Use

• Disconnecting the cable between a support tool and the NA Unit.

• Do not connect an AC power supply to the DC power terminals.

• Do not perform a dielectric strength test.

• Use a DC power with a slight voltage fluctuation and that will provide a stable output even if the input
is momentarily interrupted for 10 ms. Also use the one with reinforced insulation or double insulation.

Rated Power Supply Voltage: 24VDC (Allowable range 19.2 to 28.8VDC)

• Use a power cable with AWG#12 to #22 thick (0.35mm2 to 3.31mm2). Peel the coating 7mm length
and tighten the terminal screw with the torque in the range of 0.5 to 0.6 N·m. Also confirm if the termi­nal screw is tighten appropriately.

• To prevent malfunctions caused by noise, ground the NA Unit correctly.

• Do not use any battery if strong impact is applied to it (e.g. by dropping on the floor) because such a
battery may cause a leakage.

• Confirm the type of the battery to install the battery properly.

• Apply power for at least five minutes before changing the battery. Mount a new battery within five
minutes after turning OFF the power supply. If power is not supplied for at least five minutes, the
clock data may be lost. Check the clock data after changing the battery.

• Do not dismantle a battery nor let it short-circuit.

• Do not apply an impact with the lithium battery, charge it, dispose it into a fire, or heat it. Doing either
of them may cause an ignition or a bursting.

• Dispose of the NA Units and batteries according to local ordinances as they apply.

• The following precaution must be displayed on all products containing lithium primary batteries with a
perchlorate content of 6ppb or higher when exporting them to or shipping them through California,
USA.

Perchlorate Material - special handling may apply.

See www.dtsc.ca.gov/hazardouswaste/perchlorate

The NA-Series contains a lithium primary battery with a perchlorate content of 6ppb or higher. When

• Do not accidentally press the touch panel when the backlight is not lit or when the display does not
appear or is too dark to identify visually.

• You can change the brightness by changing the setting such as in the system menu or by download­ing project.
If the brightness is set to very dark, it causes flickering or unreadable screen. Additionally, the bright­ness can be restored by transferring the project again after setting the property of the brightness
appropriately.
In a case of the applications where end users can control the brightness, create the applications so
as keeping on operations by such as assigning the function which restores the brightness to one of
function keys, if necessary.

• Signals from the touch panel may not be entered if the touch panel is pressed consecutively at high
speed. Make sure to go on the next operation after confirming that the NA Unit has detected the input
of the touch panel.

• The function keys have the restrictions as follows:

• When you use gloves or others, the function keys may not work correctly depending on the mate­rial and thickness of the gloves. Take actual conditions of the gloves usage into considerations
prior to the system startup to perform the confirmation.

• The function keys do not work when covered with water. Remove the water completely before
use.

Precautions for Correct Use

Precautions for Correct Use

 Do not install or store the NA Unit in any of the following locations:

• Locations subject to severe changes in temperature

• Locations subject to temperatures or humidity outside the range specified in the specifications

• Locations subject to condensation as the result of high humidity

• Locations subject to corrosive or flammable gases

• Locations subject to strong shock or vibration

• Locations outdoors subject to direct wind and rain

• Locations subject to strong ultraviolet light

• Locations subject to dust

• Locations subject to direct sunlight

• Locations subject to splashing oil or chemicals

 Take appropriate and sufficient countermeasures when installing systems in

the following locations:

• Locations subject to static electricity or other forms of noise

• Locations subject to strong electric field or magnetic field

• Locations close to power supply lines

• Locations subject to possible exposure to radioactivity

 Mounting Panel

• To conform to UL Type 1 standards, the mounting panel thickness must be 1.6 to 6.0 mm.

• To conform to UL Type 4X standards, the thickness must be 1.6 to 4.5 mm.
To conform to UL Type 4X standards, always use the NA5-W with a High-pressure
Waterproof Attachment (PWA). If you do not use a PWA, there is a risk of water entry, which may
cause severe equipment damage.

• Tighten the Mounting Brackets evenly to a torque of between 0.5 and 0.6 N·m to maintain water
and dust resistance. If the tightening torque exceeds the specified range or the tightening is not
even, deformation of the front panel may occur. Make sure the panel is not dirty or warped, that
the front surface is smooth, and that the panel is strong enough to hold the NA Unit.

Regulations and Standards

Conformance to EC Directives

Applicable Directives

• EMC Directive

Concepts

 EMC Directive

OMRON devices that comply with EC Directives also conform to the related EMC standards so that
they can be more easily built into other devices or the overall machine. The actual products have
been checked for conformity to EMC standards.*

Whether the products conform to the standards in the system used by the customer, however, must
be checked by the customer. EMC-related performance of the OMRON devices that comply with EC
Directives will vary depending on the configuration, wiring, and other conditions of the equipment or
control panel on which the OMRON devices are installed. The customer must, therefore, perform
the final check to confirm that devices and the overall machine conform to EMC standards.

* Applicable EMC (Electromagnetic Compatibility) standards are as follows:

EMS (Electromagnetic Susceptibility): EN 61131-2:2007
EMI (Electromagnetic Interference): EN 61131-2:2007

Regulations and Standards

 Conformance to EC Directives

The NA-series PTs comply with EC Directives. To ensure that the machine or device in which the
NA-series PT is used complies with EC Directives, the NA-series PT must be installed as follows:

• The NA Unit must be installed in a control panel.

• You must use reinforced insulation or double insulation for the DC power supplies connected to
the NA Unit.

• NA-series PTs that comply with EC Directives also conform to the Common Emission Standard
(EN 61000-6-4). Radiated emission characteristics (10-m regulations) may vary depending on the
configuration of the control panel used, other devices connected to the control panel, wiring, and
other conditions.
You must therefore confirm that the overall machine or equipment complies with EC Directives.

• This is a Class A product (for industrial environments). In a residential environment, it may cause
radio interference, in which case the user may be required to take appropriate measures.

1-1 NA-series Programmable Terminals

The NA-series Programmable Terminals represent the next generation of HMIs for industrial applica­tions. They display information on FA manufacturing sites and function as control interfaces while pro­viding safety, reliability, and maintainability. They provide all of the functions of traditional programmable
terminals with a clearer, easy-to-use interface.

OMRON offers the new Sysmac Series of control devices designed with unified communications speci­fications and user interface specifications.

The NA-series Programmable Terminals are Sysmac devices that you can use together with the
NJ/NX/NY-series Machine Automation Controllers and the Sysmac Studio Automation Software to
achieve optimum functionality and ease of operation.

If you connect an NA-series Programmable Terminal to an NJ/NX/NY-series Controller, all you have to
do to specify memory in the Controller is to specify the Controller variables for the objects on the Pro­grammable Terminal screens. This allows you to create screens without being concerned with the
memory map of the Controller.

1-1-1 Features

1 - 2

Hardware Features

 High-resolution Display Panels

High-resolution display panels are used to more clearly display large amounts of information than
was possible with previous OMRON products.

 Two Ethernet Ports (Standard Feature)

You can use both Ethernet ports to separate the segment attached to control devices from the seg­ment attached to maintenance devices. Access is possible from both segments at the same time.

You can connect the following devices.

• NJ/NX/NY-series Controllers

•PLCs

•Computers

• Sysmac Studio

NA-series Programmable Terminal Hardware User’s Manual (V117)

1 Introduction to the NA-series Programmable Terminals

 Standard-feature SD Memory Card Slot

You can use an SD Memory Card inserted in the NA Unit to automatically transfer the project you
created on the Sysmac Studio to the NA Unit, to update the system program in the NA Unit, or to
save the log data from the NA Unit.

 Specifications with Variables for Superior Reusability

If you connect to an NJ/NX/NY-series Controller, all you have to do to specify memory in the Control­ler is to specify the Controller variables. This allows you to create objects that are not dependent on
specific devices or memory maps. This in turn makes the objects much more reusable than they
were with previous PTs.

 Program with Visual Basic

You can use Microsoft’s Visual Basic to program advanced functions that you cannot achieve with
standard objects.

 A Wealth of Security Features

The many security features of the NA-series PTs include operation authority settings and execution
restrictions with IDs.

 Use the Integrated Development Environment of Sysmac Studio Automation

Software

You use the Sysmac Studio to create applications for the NA-series Programmable Terminals.

The Sysmac Studio provides an integrated development environment that covers not only the
NA-series Programmable Terminal, but also the Controller and devices on EtherCAT as well.

You can use consistent procedures for all devices regardless of differences in the devices. The Sys­mac Studio supports all phases of Controller application, from page creation and sequence design
through debugging, simulations, commissioning, and changes during operation.

Precautions for Safe Use

Precautions for Correct Use

• Do not press the touch panel with a force greater than 30 N.

• The deterioration over time may cause the touch points to move on the touch panel. Cali­brate the touch panel periodically.

• A touch position detection error of approximately 20 pixels may occur due to the precision of
the touch panel. Always take this into account when positioning objects on the panel so
adjoining objects will not be activated by mistake.

• Confirm the safety of the system before pressing the touch panel.

• Do not accidentally press the touch panel when the backlight is not lit or when the display
does not appear or is too dark to identify visually.

• Signals from the touch panel may not be entered if the touch panel is pressed consecutively
at high speed. Make sure to go on the next operation after confirming that the NA Unit has
detected the input of the touch panel.

2-1 NA Units

2-1-1 Components and Functions

• If you touch the touch panel where there is no object and then slide your finger over to an
object, the object will not be activated. To activate an object, remove your finger from the
touch panel and then touch the object securely.

• To ensure accurate input operations, use the size of a finger as the basis for the minimum
size of objects.

 RUN Indicator Status

You can use the status of the RUN indicator to check the status of the NA Unit.
Refer to 5-1-1 Checking NA Unit Status on page 5-2 for details.

 Function Keys

You can specify the action to execute when a function key is tapped.

You can specify the following actions: calling a user-defined subroutine, prohibiting touch panel inputs,
changing the backlight brightness, displaying a PDF file, etc.

To execute these functions, you assign the function key operations to global events or object events and then
specify the corresponding actions.

the temperature inside the panel may be at least 10 to 15°C higher than outside the panel. Implement
the following measures against overheating at the installation site and in the panel, and allow a suffi­cient margin for the temperature.

High Temperatures

Use the following cooling methods as required, taking into account the ambient temperature and the
amount of heating inside the panel.

 Natural Cooling

Natural cooling relies on natural ventilation through slits in the panel, rather than using cooling
devices such as fans or coolers. When using this method, observe the following points.

• Do not install the NA Unit at the top of the panel, where hot air tends to stagnate.

• To provide ventilation space above and below the NA Unit, leave sufficient distance from other
devices, wiring ducts, etc.

• Do not mount the NA Unit in the wrong direction (e.g., vertically or upside down). Doing so may
cause abnormal heating in the NA Unit.

• Do not install the NA Unit above any heat-generating equipment, such as heaters, transformers,
and devices with high resistance.

• Do not install the NA Unit in a location exposed to direct sunlight.

Low Temperatures

The NA Unit may not start normally if the temperature is below 0°C when the power is turned ON.

Maintain an air temperature of at least approximately 5°C inside the panel, by implementing measures
such as installing a low-capacity space heater in the panel. Alternatively, leave the NA Unit power ON to
keep the NA Unit warm.

3-5-2 Humidity

Rapid temperature changes can cause condensation to occur, resulting in malfunctioning due to
short-circuiting. When there is a possibility of this occurring, take measures against condensation, such
as leaving the NA Unit power ON at night or installing a heater in the control panel to keep it warmer.

3-5-3 Vibration and Shock

The NA Unit is tested for conformity with the sine wave vibration test method (IEC 60068-2-6) and the
shock test method (IEC 60068-2-27) of the Environmental Testing for Electrotechnical Products. It is
designed so that malfunctioning will not occur within the specifications for vibration and shock. If, how­ever, the NA Unit is to be used in a location in which it will be directly subjected to regular vibration or
shock, then implement the following countermeasures:

• Separate the control panel from the source of the vibration or shock.
Or, secure the NA Unit and the panel with rubber padding.

• Make the building or the floor vibration resistant.

• To prevent shock when other devices in the panel such as electromagnetic contactors operate,
secure either the source of the shock or the NA Unit with rubber padding.

3-5-4 Atmosphere

Using the NA Unit in any of the following locations can cause defective contact with connectors and cor­rosion of components. Implement countermeasures such as purging the air as required.

• In locations exposed to dust, dirt, salt, metal powder, soot, or organic solvents, use a panel with an
airtight structure. Be careful of temperature increases inside the panel.

• In locations exposed to corrosive gas, purge the air inside the panel to clear the gas and then pres­surize the inside of the panel to prevent gas from entering from outside.

• In locations where flammable gas is present, either use an explosion-protected construction or do not
use the NA Unit.

 Wiring Routes

Each of the following combinations includes different signal types, properties, or levels. They will
cause the signal-to-noise ratio to drop due to factors such as electrical induction. As a general rule
when wiring, either use separate cables or separate wiring routes for these items. Future mainte­nance operations and changes to the system will also be made easier by carefully organizing the
wiring from the start.

• Power lines and signal lines

• Input signals and output signals

• Analog signals and digital signals

• High-level signals and low-level signals

• Communications lines and power lines

• DC signals and AC signals

Observe the following points when wiring power supply and signal cables.

• When routing signal cables with different characteristics through the same duct, always keep
them separated.

• As much as possible, avoid routing multiple power supply lines through the same duct. If it cannot
be avoided, then construct a partition between them in the duct and ground the partition.

• To avoid overheating the conduits when using conduits for wiring, do not place wires for a single
circuit in separate conduits.

3-5-6 Grounding

Grounding has the following two purposes.

• Protective Grounding

Protective grounding is done to ensure safety. It is intended to prevent electrical shock by holding the
electrical potential at the grounding potential that is generated by factors such as leakage, induction,
or failure.

• Functional Grounding

Functional grounding is done to protect device and system functions, including prevention of noise
from external sources, or prevention of noise from devices or equipment that could have harmful
effects on other devices or equipment.

Grounding requirements sometimes depend on the situation, and they may be found based on experi­mentation. It is important to sufficiently check the particular circumstances before grounding.

Grounding Methods and Precautions

 Principles of One-point Grounding

3

3-5-6 Grounding

NA-series Programmable Terminal Hardware User’s Manual (V117)

For devices to operate properly, the reference potential between the devices must be stabilized. Use
one-point grounding so that noise current does not flow to ground lines between the devices.

• Use one-point grounding as shown in figure (a). Connect to the ground pole of the other devices.

• Never connect to the same ground as a device that draws a large amount of power, such as a
motor or inverter. Ground the devices separately to avoid mutually adverse influences.

• To prevent electrical shock, do not connect to ground poles (or steel frames) to which multiple
devices are connected.

• Use a ground pole as close to the NA Unit as possible and keep the ground line as short as possi­ble.

Channel base

The NA Units are designed to be
mounted so that they are isolated
(separated) from the mounting surface
to protect them from the effects of noise
in the installation environment (e.g., the
environment in which the control panel
is mounted).

 Precautions when Grounding

• If the same ground is used for both the signal lines and the enclosure, isolate the channel base (a
grounded metal plate inside a control panel) with an insulating material.

• To prevent influence from leakage current from other electrical devices, electrically isolate the panel

• If high-frequency equipment is present, then ground not only the high-frequency equipment but also

 NA Unit Functional Ground Terminal

The NA Unit has the following ground terminal.

Functional ground terminal: Connected to a neutral point in the noise filter to provide a ground when

When the functional ground terminal is correctly grounded, it is generally effective in suppressing power
supply common noise. Occasionally, however, grounding this terminal will result in picking up more
noise, so be careful when using it.
